Pacific Perimeter – Tokyo, Honolulu & Vancouver
About this cruise
A trip this long changes your rhythm entirely, and that's very much the point. 79 nights from Brisbane on June 15, 2027, visiting Sydney, Auckland and Bay of Islands, with additional stops along the Japan, Korea, China & Taiwan. The final stretch is open ocean, which gives you time to process everything you've seen and use the ship one last time. The route threads through 13 countries along the Japan, Korea, China & Taiwan coast: Australia, New Zealand, Fiji, Samoa, French Polynesia, United States, Canada, Japan, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Vietnam, Singapore and Indonesia. You get around 11 hours in each port, which is enough for an excursion, lunch, and some wandering around on your own. When you're not ashore, Grand Princess has 10 restaurants on board, which means you could eat somewhere different nearly every night. One of the underrated parts of a longer cruise: you actually get to know people. The couple from dinner, the group at trivia, the bartender who remembers your drink. A June departure puts you in the best summer conditions: long days, warm nights, plenty of sun. You start in Brisbane and come back with stories from Australia, New Zealand, Fiji, Samoa, French Polynesia, United States, Canada, Japan, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Vietnam, Singapore and Indonesia.
